"knots"

The chapter of works on "Knots" evokes archetypes, in a universal interweaving that connects everything. Knots represent our unconscious. The intertwined ropes represent the various elements of life that intertwine and intersect in an intricate symbolic design. Rope knots symbolize connection, the relationship between the different spheres of human existence, like a labyrinth of emotions, thoughts, and paths. The spherical shape, typical of celestial bodies, has always fascinated the human imagination, prompting profound reflections on the nature of the universe and our relationship with it. The sphere evokes powerful concepts such as perfection and completeness, infinity and eternity, unity and wholeness, reflection and introspection, harmony and peace. Spherical knots, devoid of sharp edges, invoke concepts such as perfection and completeness, symbolizing the harmony and balance between its various component parts.

Given the lack of clearly defined beginning and end points, the works in this chapter are intended to represent infinity and eternity, suggesting a continuous and endless cycle, the unity and totality of the universe, and the connection and interconnectedness of all things. The spherical shape also evokes inner reflection and introspection, inviting us to explore our inner world in a harmonious and balanced way.

Below are some verses proposed for this chapter of works by Prof. G. Torroni.

Concealed, teeming, within the fertile darkness the primordial mass moves blind: alchemical breath, point of convergence, motionless journey.

​​

​

It pulses, in the warm womb of shapeless matter, a verminous tangle of scented cords, immortal life of renewed embraces from which that mortal soul dissolved as if from a dark mother who gathers, dissolves, and hardens and appears in a thousand forms, only to vanish again and reappear under different auspices and skies ever new yet ever the same, in infinite thrusts of self-moving skeins wrapped in aggregated elements.

​​

​

In this figure pulses the black heart of the universe, and it is my vanishing and yours for a mere nothing of eternal time, a lost minimal frequency at the depths of the cosmos, residue of an event.
